United Nations chief Ban Ki-Moon is heading for talks with Israeli leaders, amid signs of progress in efforts to secure a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
More than 1,000 Gazans and 13 Israelis have reportedly died as Israel\'s war on Hamas militants enters its 20th day.
Hamas officials yesterday said they were happy with the broad outlines of an Egyptian peace initiative, but details remained to be worked out.
Israel\'s chief negotiator Amos Gilad is expected in Cairo for talks later.
